You talk a lot about the group, e.g. “an excellent team” and list your first attribute as “a team player.” I feel like as women we do this a lot and it actually diminishes our own individual successes.
Also from personal experience, the company doesn’t care what you expected or was promised to you when you were hired. You signed the contract and now you’re stuck with whatever you signed up for, as far as they’re concerned.
Be more precise and specific about what YOU have done and what makes it so that they can’t hire somebody new tomorrow to replace you at the same below-market rate.
“Because of the sales coaching program I designed, in-store sales are up 20% month over month.” “My PVR is 15% higher than colleagues with similar years of experience.” “I have received other job offers with a 10% increase in salary and that is commensurate with my accomplishments and skills. I would need a matching raise to stay. If I leave I expect XYZ impacts (attrition, sales drop).”
These conversations are best had verbally first, you can then follow up with an email to summarise the conversation and have a written record

Keep out the job offers piece, that’s you opening the door to exit the company with the risk of them kicking your butt out. It never works out favorably in the long run.
Agree have the conversation first verbally, follow up with what you’ve written but you need to face your manager and make the request, it’s easier for them to respond no to an email.

Agreed on the other offers. I might be inclined to suggest they take another offer.
Every single sentence/point you make should have numbers and specific to back it up. Being a team player and "working to coach" aren't reasons to deserve a raise. How did you specifically contribute in a way no one else can? How did your coaching produce a positive outcome? Similarly, being "willing to learn and grow" or any other general good personality traits aren't grounds for raise. What matters is the bottom line - what value (specifically $$$) are you bringing to the company? Why is it in their interest to try and retain you?
Perhaps even more importantly, where is the research and actually numbers for what you think your salary should be? I think a manager would respond better to "Based on X, Y, and Z sources (have these sources printed out and ready to hand over) I think market value for someone in my role with my years of experience should be $x". Since you've already listed specifics about the value you bring (again, monetary specifics or large project accomplishments, not just being an employee with a good attitude), you deserve at least that fair market value.
2 remedied by this review. June's numbers produced the range I was expecting to be the average not the outlier. July is proving that despite continued best efforts, this will not be the case at my current pay plan. I do believe we have an excellent team here with great potential to get the store performing at its peak, So I hope this will be thoughtfully considered so that I will continue to feel valued for my contributions to our success.
Thoughts? Should I leave out the part of receiving other comparable offers?
Let us know how it goes!
